Have you heard of Uber? It\u2019s a service in which you can hire a private driver to pick you up and take you to your desired destination for a lower cost than a regular taxi.

\nIn order to use Uber as a passenger, you need to create an account, and then download the free application, which is available on Android, iPhone or Windows. \u00a0Once you have an account, you just have to fill out your details and your payment method of choice. When you order an Uber, the nearest driver will come to your doorstep within a matter of minutes. You can even monitor where your driver is while he makes his way to you. \u00a0And since your credit card information is on the application, you can also ride without stressing about having cash on you.
\nDriving for Uber is also a unique job with many perks. \u00a0You get to be your own boss, set your own hours, and drive in your own vehicle while making money. What could possibly be more comfortable? \u00a0And many Uber drivers can testify that they love their job due to all the people they get to meet.
\n
\nDo note, however, that you must be at least 21 years of age to be an Uber driver, as well as have a 4 door car in good condition that is not older than a 2006 model. You also need car insurance, a driver’s license for at least year and no criminal record. If you meet the criteria, then you\u2019re set to be an Uber driver.
\nIf you\u2019re worried about the safety of Uber, then that\u2019s completely fair enough. Uber is very safe for a taxi service, especially since passengers have the option of giving their driver a rating following their ride. This is also an incentive for drivers to give you the most pleasant and safe ride possible. Uber has even been giving both the passenger and driver security protocols to ensure that the transaction is completely safe. \u00a0Try it for yourself, and you\u2019ll never want to pay a full taxi fare again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
